Summary "Le transporté" by Joseph Méry is a historical novel written in the mid-19th century. The story unfolds against the backdrop of political upheaval in France, exploring themes of love, betrayal, and survival through the experiences of its characters. The primary focus revolves around Lucrèce Dorio, a beautiful woman imprisoned due to her connections with a deported revolutionary, as well as Georges Flamant, her captor, who exhibits both malice and obsession. The opening of the novel sets a dark tone as it introduces Lucrèce Dorio in her confinement, depicted in a gloomy prison environment where she confronts the manipulations and threats of her captor, Georges Flamant. Despite the despair that surrounds her, Lucrèce remains resolute and determined to prove her innocence, especially concerning her lover, Maurice Dessains, who has been wrongfully accused. Throughout this scene, the tensions rise as Lucrèce's dignity and cleverness shine through her dire situation, ultimately leading her to compose a desperate plea for help. Meanwhile, the narrative hints at broader themes of revolution and the moral contrasts between characters, setting the stage for a gripping tale of resilience in a time of turmoil.
